the universe is an inverted paradox where every truth is a dichotomy. There has to be suffering for there to be happiness, there has to be loss for there to be gains.

on a related note:

Sorry if this is off topic, but i feel the urge to comment on that statement.
The way i see it is, that for example truth and lie are not opposites. A lie is a distortion of truth,
but truth is not a distorted lie. Likewise, bad is the distortion of good, but good is not the distortion of bad.
So it is a widespread myth to believe that these concepts are in effect the same and that in the universe there can't be one without the other.

But this game could give us the chance to re-think common concepts and find broader understandings.

Linux Specific Issues / [Solved] Games crashes after updating with pslaunch
« on: December 03, 2015, 10:54:45 am »
Greetings.

I have an Arch Linux 64 bit system. I downloaded the package build file for PS from the Arch AUR repository, ran makepkg and installed it via pacman. I started the game with the command 'planeshift', there were several warnings but i could play the game for several hours and it worked fine, no graphical errors and sound was good.

Then i made a mistake. I read that if i wanted fullscreen mode i should start the game with the command 'pslaunch' so that i could enable fullscreen, which i did. Then i and clicked on update. There were several warnings about file permission, so i clicked on repair. Again there were some warnings. I entered the game and it crashed shortly after my character appeared in game.

I tried to follow the troubleshooting guide from the wiki but it did not help me.

So i removed the program with pacman -R, built the package again and reinstalled with pacman, started 'pslaunch' and disabled fullscreen. This did not help, it crashed again at the same point.
So i started it again with 'pslaunch', added my user to the games group as suggested, did the update, entered the game and it crashed at same point.
So i startet 'pslaunch', clicked repair, cleaned the texture cache as suggested, entered the game and it crashed at the same point.

I am sorry i have no idea now what to do in order to make it work again. please help me.
I wanted to attach a file with the console output but it seems i can not do that here and i did not want to paste the output here because it's about 400 lines long.
If you need any further information please let me know.

Yours,
Susanna (Kaasha Leevaz)

Edit: Sorry i saw too late a similar question has been asked. I will try to contact a GM in IRC as suggested.
But there are many error messages on the screen, so i fear just moving the character to a new location will not help, but who knows.

Edit: This is embarassing for me, but if found solution by reading more carefully in forum. I followed this suggestion:
After further testing, I found that on my my computer, the character generation screen crashes randomly if VBO is turned "OFF". By default, on a fresh install, VBO is turned off. Turning VBO on fixes the problem for me.

Sorry for stealing your time with this. Next time i will read forum more carefully.
